A Music-Lover's Map To Mumbai Cafes And Restaurants

NRI {Not Really Indian} as the name defines itself, serves the best of western cuisines with Indian spices. With their music too, they like to play music with the best of Asian Underground music. From Prem Joshua to Talvin Singh, NRI’s music is a must-listen.

You can find chill electronic music with the tempo growing through the day at The Daily Bar & Kitchen. The music here is never too loud and it always has elements of house and chillstep. In their jukebox, they have artists such as Disclosure, Sebb Aston and Kilbel.

Le15 Café is enveloped with a warm and take-it-easy vibe helped along by their music. On their Jukebox playlist, they have a lot of easy listening French pop and jazz. This, mixed with some R&B, soul and vocal blues, gives the music in the French café an interesting soul.

Music we especially liked from their playlist {and could pronounce} was by Ray Charles, Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox, The Moon Loungers and Nina Simone. We’re planning on replicating this playlist at home after a long day at work.

From retro to now, Indigo Deli likes to mix it up. They have curated their music based on the days of the week. Weekdays playing more of retro rock and commercial music, whereas on the weekends they start their day with classics like Louis Armstrong, and acid jazz like 2 Men 4 Souls, as well as swing soul music.

The bricked wall and wooden seating at this Italian restaurant is just the place to sit at with their mix of different pop music including Italian, French, Chill, Easy Listening, Modern and classic. The music played there is happy and upbeat, though within pop.
